The Aaron Siskind Foundation is accepting applications for its 2014 Individual Photographer’s Fellowships program., The annual program encourages and celebrates artistic achievement in contemporary photography by supporting the creative endeavors of artists working in photography and photo-based art media.

A limited number of fellowship grants of up to $10,000 each will be awarded to artists working in photography and photo-based art. Qualified applicants must provide a portfolio of still photography. Submitted works  may be traditional photography projects or experimental, but photographic techniques must be pivotal to the work. Examples of ineligible work include film, video, and interactive multimedia.

Recipients will be determined by a panel of distinguished guest judges on the basis of artistic excellence, accomplishment to date, and the promise of future achievement in the medium. Fellowship funds must be used to further the artist’s creative endeavors.

Citizens and legal permanent residents of the United States who reside in the U.S. and  are at least 21 years old are eligible to apply.
